Perched at an impressive 7,820 feet elevation in the majestic high country of Catron County, this extraordinary 7.59-acre parcel offers a rare opportunity to own land directly bordering the Apache National Forest. The Armijo Springs valley provides a stunning backdrop with panoramic vistas that will take your breath away, while Quemado Lake lies just 9.5 miles away by road, perfect for weekend adventures.
This pristine property boasts a gentle, meadow-covered slope adorned with a diverse mix of native vegetation including stately ponderosa pines, oak, pinyon, and juniper trees. A pre-leveled building site awaits your dream home, with multiple prime locations to choose from. The parcel features access to a community water system with existing piping, though it's also ideal for a private well. For those seeking a self-sufficient lifestyle, this location is perfectly suited for off-grid living.
Nature enthusiasts and hunters will appreciate the property's location in Game Unit 15, renowned for its trophy elk hunting opportunities. The land teems with wildlife, including elk, turkey, deer, and javelina. As the last private property before the National Forest Campground Armijo Springs, this parcel offers unparalleled privacy and recreational access. An existing trailer on the property currently serves as storage space but could be transformed into a cozy living area. The Agua Fria Subdivision setting ensures you'll have the perfect balance of community amenities while maintaining your connection to nature.
